Growing your business demands time. Lots of it.  This doesn’t leave much room for concentrating on your company’s books or building your accounting systems. While things like managing reconciliations, comparing cash flows to receivables, and generating profit and loss statements aren’t overly complicated, they require effort and analysis. While some small companies can get away with a part-time bookkeeper, most companies (especially those who plan to scale) will need a financing team to create forecasts, analyze customer acquisition costs, and determine product-level profitability. 

A full-service outsourced accounting firm has the advantage of scaling up or down depending on your business needs. Along with monthly bookkeeping tasks, an outsourced accounting firm can create quarterly board presentations, detailed annual budgets, forecasts, or assist with due diligence or audit requests. 

At G-Squared Partners, we ensure your books are accurate and easy to understand, so you’re in a position to make strategic business decisions and achieve your goals. When the time comes to secure financing or investors, we’re confident you have the systems, controls, and reports in place that you need.

Outsourced Accounting and Bookkeeping Functions 

When it comes to outsourced accounting and bookkeeping services, there are three main areas to consider.

Financial Accounting
An outsourced accounting firm focuses on processing and recording transactions, including sending invoices, managing payroll, managing receivables, and pursuing collections. 

Controller Functions
Controller functions involve closing the companies books, preparing financial statements, and calculating critical metrics from those statements (i.e., accounts receivable, profit margins, and aging schedules). 

CFO Activities
 Outsourced CFO's are in charge of creating budgets and forecasts, analyzing the business profitability drivers, supporting lender relationships, providing financial data and analysis for board presentations, assisting with capital raises, and providing support for M&A activities. 


Most outsourced financial firms tend to focus on just one of the three areas listed above. However, there is tremendous value to hiring an outsourced accounting firm that specializes in all three areas. Firms specializing in all three functions can see the big picture regarding a company's finances- allowing for information-sharing between positions. 

 For example, a firm that only handles accounting functions may not see that last month's inventory or receivable changes may affect cash flow the next month. Or how margins or product sales may affect strategic decisions. The three functions are all interrelated and should be treated as such to ensure the long-term viability and scale of your business. 

Why Do Businesses Outsource Their Accounting and Bookkeeping? 

CEOs and business owners are spending too much time managing company finances and
not focusing on their actual role. 

Companies need professional accounting services but cannot justify a full-time accounting department or CFO.

A business may need to scale accounting functions up or down as needed. 

Companies enjoy the peace of mind that comes with the expertise and insight of a professional accounting firm.

Companies are not able to interview, vet, and onboard a finance position, nor invest in an employee's base salary, medical, dental, etc. 

Companies can take advantage of a CFO's experience and talent when necessary and then regress to standard accounting services depending on their business needs.
